A breast abscess is a collection of pus within the breast tissue, generally as a consequence of an infection. It usually forms a swollen, warm, and painful area.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist is the reference for evaluating the breast, with support from the general practitioner in the initial assessment.
Frequent symptoms: Painful lump, redness, warmth in the area, tenderness, and, at times, fever or general malaise.
When to see a doctor? It is advisable to seek care if a reddened and painful area appears in the breast, especially during breastfeeding or if it is accompanied by fever. Since it is not advisable to try to drain it on your own, it is best to have a professional check it promptly.
